Air New Zealand

This 'swarm sculpture' was commissioned by MKTG London for Air New Zealand. The sculpture was made from Air New Zealand boarding passes that were folded into paper aeroplanes and installed carefully in the shape of their brand logo, the Koru (Silver Fern).

Easy Jet

Giant Sun composition commissioned by Ink-Global for Easy Jet Traveller magazine. This issue featured Mallorca and the image was made up of carefully positioned holiday related props in the shape of the sun.

The Pineapple Room

In collaboration with vegan footwear brand Bourgeois Boheme, The Pineapple Room was conceived from our collective belief in sustainability. We created an experiential, informative and inspiring space for people to engage with life style products made from pineapple fibre material, or Pinatex, instead of animal leather.

A material at the forefront of the movement in bringing positive changes to the fashion industry.

The pop-up store was devoted to showing carefully selected brands that all produce the same high quality sustainable 'eco luxury' products. Showing people that using alternative materials does not mean loss of quality.

The installation was designed to maximise impact, compliment the brands within the store and customers access.

Built using economical and sustainable materials, each functional art piece was made from discarded/recyclable materials that can be re-used again and again.

Specsavers

These stylised paper landscapes and still life compositions, commissioned by Specsavers, were created for a their Xmas 2016 door-drop magazine. Glasses are tricky products to shoot so the sets had to be as simple as possible yet interesting enough to hold the attention of their vast customer base.

Chopard

Functional Art

This project was in collaboration with interior designer Natasha Hawtrey-Woore.

We wanted to create a functional space where rather than an after thought, Art comes first.

Each and every aspect of the installation was carefully composed with elements that reflect the beautiful qualities inherent in pineapples.

Guardian

This piece for The Guardian newspaper was a very special assignment about jobs and careers. We had to create something memorable in order to encourage and inspire their readers. The set was made up of hundreds of carefully selected and placed objects relating to our colourful journey through life.

Ballantine's

Assembly

Shoreditch based agency Assembly needed their reception room redesigned to welcome, uplift and inspire their visiting clients. Interior designer Natasha Hawtrey-Woore commissioned me to completely repaint the space in a classic Trompe L'Oeil style. Panelled walls, ceiling mouldings, an open fire, an ornate rug and a disappearing staircase...all painted by hand to offer grandeur and illusion. With this, I painted a bespoke crest to sit above the fireplace and a gold paper sculpture of the symbol of hospitality, the pineapple, adorning the main wall.

Target USA

This was an extraordinary project commissioned by Olson Media to make intricate mini sculptures of a wide range of products for a set of marketing campaign animations.

All mini sculptures were created using only paper and card.

UniQlo

This giant of a project was commissioned by ODD for Uniqlo London in winter 2010.

The brief was to design and construct a colourful Christmas window for the flag ship store, which then turned into all the major stores in Central London including Westfield.

Using shooting stars as the inspiration, we then designed a series of 2d pieces and 3d lightboxes to adorn the highstreet windows.

21 assistants joined the production with 1 month to complete it.

Jerome Rousseau

In a formidable collaboration with WILMA studio, we designed a set of unique images for Footwear designer Jerome Rousseau, celebrating the style, colour and form of his fine collection.

All elements of the set are made with paper and card.

Theatre de la Mode

February 2012

London Fashion Week Pop-Up Exhibition

In collaboration with menswear brand Theatre de la Mode (TdLM)

Working entirely by hand, with a small team of assistants and using only paper and cardboard we set out to create three intricate ‘mega structure’ sculptures that captured the spirit of their best selling jackets.

The sculptures were exhibited alongside the jackets in a pop-up exhibition during London Fashion week.

Retro Super Future

I teamed up with WILMA studio to produce a series of exciting still life sets for Sunglasses brand Retro Super Future, playing on the beautiful colours and textures of their hand crafted frames.

All elemets of this shoot were made with paper and card.

Fedrigoni

This project commissioned by Fedrigoni was in celebration of their new Savile Row collection of papers and was designed to sit alongside their new sample look books and show what can be done with them, how far paper can be taken sculpturally, the quality you can achieve using their papers.

Showing off their new textured and pin striped range, I was asked to make a to scale replica of a tailored suit using only their new collection of papers.

Templates had to be cut, stitch lines and pocket details created, shirt, tie and collars all had to be as accurate as a genuine tailored suit.

The mannequin torso and stand also had to be made from paper in order to display the final sculpture at their press event.

MCU Denim

Commissioned by Indigofera PR for Master Crafts Union (MCU) Japan.

This project was unique in that I had to speed train myself to think and work like a fashion designer would. Sampling, testing, pattern cutting, fixing and re-fixing...and although they were not designed to be worn, only displayed, they could have been.

The brand wanted to show off their new fabric technology by commissioning some sculptures made from their signature material, traditional Japanese Washi paper.

Along with the Jean sculptures I made bespoke Origami Humming bird invites which were, like the Jeans, tested and part dyed in the signature indigo jean blue.

Superdrug

The brief here was to design and construct an engaging and colourful space for Superdrug's 50th anniversary. This included Giant cosmetic product bottles, signage and giant welcome letters to fill the cavenous event space, which included dressing a runway for LCF's best fashion design telents. All props and signage were constructed entirely from paper and cardboard.

Darkroom

Rhonda and Lulu at Darkroom wanted a Christmas window done for the Winter of 2013, so I created a 3 dimensional geometric icy landscape using white and pearlescent card to give them something to display thier products on in a unique way. The window was both engaing to the passing customer yet still allowed the quality and vibrance of the products to shine through.

Una Burke

Accessory designer Una Burke needed a new set of punchy and conceptual campaign images to front her latest collection.

This series of images were designed to inject that creative and conceptual feel using brand colours, shapes and clean lines to accentuate the qualities running through the collection.
